Lead, Kindly Light

Keep Thou my feet; I do not ask to see The distant scene; One step enough for me.

“Love Like Rain” by Daniel Doss

Light and breath come from Your hand,

In Your presence, who can stand?

Even angels veil their sight, high and lifted, glorified.

Love outstanding overflows, in our hearts it ever grows

Sent to live and breathe through us;

Flow like waters, comes Your love.

Flow like waters, comes Your love.

Love like rain fall down, love like arms surround.

Hold the universe in place,

Hold my heart in Your embrace.

Loving Father, pure and right, waits, arms open, for the sight

Of the wayward son come home; celebration waits alone.

At first glimpse the Father runs, dripping tears fall on the son;

From His knees the Father lifts to embrace,

Yeah, to embrace and kiss his face.

Blood and sweat have made the way for the sinner gone astray.

Come and rest in His embrace, love has paved the way for grace.

Enter in, O wayward child, born in sin, now reconciled;

Live to please the Lord of love,

Live and breathe for home above, yeah,

Live and breathe for home above.

Love like rain fall down, love like arms surround.

Hold the universe in place,

Hold my heart in Your embrace.  Yeah,

Father, God come down. Father God, surround.

Take this wand’ring heart of mine,

Seal it for Thy courts divine, yeah,

Seal it for Thy courts divine.

Hi, I was searching for the lyrics to “Love Like Rain” online and was blessed to have come across your blog! Thank you for posting these lyrics 🙂

Also, I noticed your blog is with the Harvard Law School domain — are you at the Law School? I just thought it’d be cool if you were; I’m an undergraduate at the College and I lived in the dorm literally closest to the Law School this past year. 🙂

God bless!~
